Maturity Analysis Procedure: Methodology & Approach
The Maturity Level Analysis is based on comprehensive interviews with the IT and system managers, using detailed questionnaires, documentation reviews and site inspections. The applied assessment materials are proven in practice and comply with ISO/IEC 27001.
In more complex IT environments, the assessment is generally performed by two auditors with shared responsibilities for audit management, interviewing and response documentation.
It is recommended that the analysis is carried out in combination with a technical assessment (e.g. vulnerability analysis , penetration test , etc.)
